This full-time role is with the Mission-Driven Analysis and Testing team, which utilizes operational analysis to develop scenarios for injection into target hardware and feeds the hardware performance test results back into the mission analysis.
Position responsibilities:
+ Produce end-to-end fighter engagement analyses and recommendation, along with data products to communicate results to product line and business area technical directors and external customers.
+ Interface with customers, particularly product line directors, as the primary point of contact to scope and execute operational analysis studies and tasks.
+ Build a stronger linkage between the actual hardware/emulators and the effects in Operational Analysis models.
+ Identify validation approaches for operational analysis study results.
+ Execute Operational Analysis studies, working with Study Managers and providing direction and feedback to Ops Analysts.
+ Build and contribute to IRAD plans and generate IRAD final reports.
+ Lead working groups to solve Operational Analysis capability needs.
+ Work with the Operational Analysis leadership team to identify needed capabilities and set technical roadmaps to fill capability gaps.
+ Grow Operational Analysis across ECS by capturing new OA work in programs and product lines.
+ Develop viable concept solutions, identify, and track technical risks, and lead technical teams.
